120h to Tokyo

Borna Libertines

Borna Libertines, the New York City-based collage graffiti artist and underground techno producer, today releases 120h to Tokyo, an eight-track LP built entirely on analog hardware that traces a complete emotional arc through six months spent living in Tokyo. Every track on the record began as an attempt to resolve something about Tokyo that wouldn't sit still in words — the proximity of jazz bars to techno clubs, the near-musicality of subway announcements, the tension between precision and spontaneity that defines the city's daily rhythm. Recorded on modular synthesizers, acid bass, and heavy kick at 138–140 BPM, the album folds in field recordings captured directly in the city — train station sounds, crossing signals, convenience store textures — alongside two tracks built around jazz saxophone, drawing on Tokyo's deep jazz bar lineage. It is the most immersive and geographically specific release in the Borna Libertines catalog to date.
